Chapter 283 The Ugly Daughter-in-law Meets Her Parents-in-law (2)
Despite Lin Zhou's repeated explanations that there was no need to rush the villagers' registration, Tian Xin still insisted on going to the village committee. She told Zhang Ying that if any villagers came, she should first guide them through the online store's operating procedures and other matters.
After they finished explaining everything, both of them blushed from the teasing of the online shop owners. They drove away from the village and headed towards the county town.
"I love this wonderful world—you make me feel strong—the pain in my heart—is like a passing cloud—for the first time—I feel—my heart is as clear as the sky—"
On the road, Lin Zhou held the steering wheel with one hand, held Tian Xin's hand tightly with the other, humming along with the music playing on the radio, and was in a very good mood.
After singing a song, they walked to the next village.
The music on the radio suddenly stopped, and he seemed unsatisfied, so he asked Tian Xin to take out a CD and continue to express his enthusiasm.
After waiting for a long time, there was no movement from Tian Xin.
He turned his head and saw that she was leaning on the seat with empty eyes, not moving or speaking, staring blankly at a place in front of her!
"What's wrong with you?" He stretched out his hand and waved it in front of her eyes: "I don't feel well!"
Tian Xin shook her head and said, "No!"
Then continue to stare out the window in a daze.
"Then what's wrong with you? What are you thinking about?"
"nothing!"
"Oh...what did you just ask me to do?"
Tian Xin turned around again and forced a smile at Lin Zhou: "I didn't hear it clearly just now!"
"I told you to find a CD and listen to some music to relax!"
"oh!"
The two of them had been together quite a lot during this time, and finding CDs was something they both had a tacit understanding of. Tian Xin knew what he wanted to listen to without Lin Zhou telling her, so she casually pulled out the CD Lin Hai had given him, inserted it, and pressed play.
The process is quite smooth, with almost no hesitation, and is completed entirely by muscle memory.
Lin Zhou felt somewhat helpless and paused the song the moment it started playing. Then, he turned to look at her, still with that warm smile on his face.
"Huh? Why is it turned off?"
She pressed play again and turned to look at him with a puzzled look on her face: "Isn't this what you wanted to listen to?"
"Are you... nervous?"
"No!"
"Don't deny it, you've made it obvious!"
"Really not!"
"But I just told you to find Xu Wei's album!"
“…”
After a second of hesitation, she reacted: "Then I'll start over..."
"Forget it!" Lin Zhouyi held her hand and stopped her.
Then he parked the car on the side of the road, turned around, and held her face in his hands: "Be good, don't be nervous. My mother is easy to get along with and will definitely not make things difficult for you!"
After saying that, without waiting for Tian Xin's response, he leaned close to her and gently kissed her on the forehead.
"You know what? I didn't sleep all night last night!"
He lowered his eyelashes and said softly, "Can you see my dark circles?"
"I saw it, it's obvious!" Tian Xin said, "You have insomnia too!"
"Um!"
"Why?"
"I'm so happy!"
"Happy?"
"Yeah, happy!"
Lin Zhou held her face again and rested his forehead against hers. He whispered, "I've been thinking about this all night, savoring it all night. I'm so happy because of what you said!"
"When I think about taking you to see my mother again today, I feel so happy! In all these years, there has never been a moment like this that makes me feel like I am the happiest man in the world...even if I have nothing right now."
"Well! You are happy, but what should I do?"
Tian Xin pushed Lin Zhou's hand away and returned to her half-dead state, continuing to stare out the window in a daze.
"I told you, don't be nervous!"
Lin Zhou restarted the car and drove steadily on the road: "Believe in me, and believe in yourself, my mother will definitely like you!"
"How can you say you're certain?" Tian Xin said worriedly, "I've checked. Auntie is notoriously strict in the industry. She's very strict with everything she says and does. She's been criticized to her face on TV by at least eight hundred people, if not a thousand.
Think about me again, ah...I want to die!"
After she finished speaking, she collapsed backwards, her whole body limp as if it had lost all its bones, and she looked as if she had lost all hope in life.
Lin Zhou couldn't hold back his laughter after hearing these words and seeing her look. He stopped the car again and turned to look at her.
"Honey, honey, that's work." He cupped her face again, turned her around, and forced a smile on her face. "Shouldn't work be done seriously and rigorously, without leaving any trace?" he said, smiling. "You two should agree on that! Besides, how can meeting your daughter-in-law be the same as meeting your colleagues? Aren't you afraid of looking ugly with such a frown?"
Tian Xin was completely defeated by this act of physical contact. Seeing him move his face closer again, she quickly pushed him away, urging him, "Oh, that's enough, let's go. I have to go to the mall, don't delay!"
The car restarted and soon arrived at the county town.
Tian Xin asked Lin Zhou to wait at the door while she went in and walked around for more than half an hour.
When he came out, he was holding several exquisite boxes of different sizes.
"Actually... there's absolutely no need to do this!" Lin Zhou glanced at the box she had placed on the back seat and said, "Even if you have nothing..."
"Stop talking like that!" Tian Xin interrupted him and said seriously, "I'm already very nervous. If you say that, I'll think you think these are not good enough!"
"No, no, I absolutely didn't mean that!" Lin Zhou changed his tone, "I just feel sorry for you. You must have spent at least a month's salary on these things! I can see that you put a lot of thought into it. I want to thank you on her behalf! But I can't let you spend money like this."
He took out his wallet from his trouser pocket, took out a wad of money and stuffed it into Tian Xin's hand.
This action made Tian Xin confused: "What are you doing?"
"Here's some money. These don't look cheap at all. After you buy them..."
"Even if it's not cheap, I can afford it! No, Lin Zhou, do you think I'm so poor that I have to live on the northwest wind every month?"
"No, I... didn't mean that!"
"Then what do you mean by giving me money?"
"I'm not...I feel sorry for you!"
"Take it back!"
"Don't……"
"Take it back!" This time, she emphasized her tone!
"This is my first time here, and I want to leave a good impression on Auntie! Whatever you buy, no matter how expensive or cheap, it's all my little token of my appreciation. As long as Auntie doesn't mind, it's all fine! But if you insist on disgusting me like this, I won't go!"
After saying that, she unbuckled her seat belt and pretended to get her bag to get out of the car.
This frightened Lin Zhou, and he quickly reached out to hold her back: "Hey, no, no, no, I was wrong, I was wrong! I'm sorry, I didn't think it through!"
He took the wallet back and pulled her back again: "I apologize to you, it's my fault!"
"It's okay as long as you know you're wrong. Don't do this again! You're going to embarrass me!"
"Okay, okay, okay, I got it!"
Lin Zhou sighed and apologized to her again: "To express my apology, I also have a gift... for you!"
When he said this, he secretly looked at her face and made sure she was not angry before he said: "Turn around!"
"What?"
"Turn around!"
"What?" She looked him up and down nervously: "What are you going to do?"
Lin Zhou didn't answer, but put his arm around her shoulders and turned her away without saying a word.
The next second, she felt something cool on her neck, as if something was hanging on it. She touched it and it was a necklace!
"Why are you putting this on me?"
She was anxious and reached out to pick it, but Lin Zhouyi grabbed her hand and turned it back.
"Wear it, don't take it off!"
"what?"
"I didn't get the gift before, and you didn't want it when I gave it to you. Don't refuse this one!"
Lin Zhou put his arm around her shoulders, leaned forward, kissed her, and said, "From now on, you are not allowed to refuse me again!"
"You come again, didn't I just say..."
"Nothing is allowed!" he added.
"You are so unreasonable..."
Before she could finish her sentence, her mouth was blocked again!
